Twisted Revenge by A.ZChaudhry

Chapter 43

Hi. Sorry for not updating the double update during this week, I had a veryyyyy rough week, probably the roughest till date. I relapsed bad on top of it, so just couldn't update. Plus, Wattpad is banned in my place, so first emailing chapters to my priv email, then formatting, using vpn and again formatting on Wattpad took a toll on my already low energy levels. I just couldn't. Today also was too hard for me, but I didn't want to disappoint you guys, so here you go. I'll try updating more often.

ALESSIO

Pain shot through my body when I jerked awake. It was four in the early morning when it felt as if my back was on fire. I tried to turn around when something hot flashed across my back and a groan left through my lips. I slapped a hand over my mouth as to not to wake Avelina up when I looked at her. She was sleeping very close to me, her hand over my chest when tears blinded my vision due to the pain.

What the fuck was going on?

As slowly as possible, I lightly lifted Avelina's hand and placed it aside when I decided to get off the bed. Why was my back hurting so bad all of a sudden was beyond my understanding. I rolled around in bed, my back tormenting me at this point when I sealed my mouth shut and groaned. Why the fuck was it paining me so much? I checked the time to see that seven minutes had already passed when I felt shame.

It was shameful to toss around in bed for seven minutes and not find the energy to even get up. Mafia bosses weren't taught that.

Mustering up the energy within me, I suddenly got up when a shout involuntarily left my lips as a surge of hot, blinding pain shot through my entire body, splitting my back in half. And it was just this what was needed when a few more pained groans left my mouth. My back felt as if it was on fire and someone was just feeding it more and more as it was growing hotter by the second. It felt as if someone was using a saw machine and tearing my skin apart, cutting my bones all together. I heard shifting from behind me when Avelina's sweet voice made it into my ear, her voice as sweet as honey and extremely calming to the devil.

"Alessio?"

I managed to grit out, "I'm fine, honey. Go back to sleep."

To show her I was fine, I tried to get up when I couldn't. I just couldn't find the energy when I felt my something wet trickling down my back. I pulled my shirt a bit letting some air come in when my shirt stuck to my back. I usually slept shirtless but with Avelina here, I didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable.

I was still registering as to what was going on when a sharp gasp left my wife's mouth. I wanted to immediately turn around to see if she was hurt or not, or if she was in trouble when she skidded towards me. She lifted my shirt from my back and gasped even louder, "Alessio......"

I fisted my hands against the comforter when I managed to speak, "Yes?"

She lifted the shirt even higher to see when she informed me, "It's your back. You are bleeding, the belt is covered in it."

I nodded and instructed her, "Call Cassio and tell him to come here. I can't move."

A WEEK LATER

Turns out, my skin had torn apart due to the vicious exercise I had done and with the torn muscles within, my back was badly injured as blood seeped out. The doctors treated me temporarily in Paris when I was shifted back to Italy, being treated by my own doctor. I was using my phone when Cassio popped his head inside, "Hey-"

Turning my gaze to him, I interrupted, "The France shipment details suggest right here that-"

"I didn't update it. It's handled."
